    I was born in Honduras...in Comayagua. I was quite lucky,(no offense) I've been adopted by my parents, grew up in Switzerland. I visited Honduras three times, the last time this year in march. Every time I really enjoyed it, eventhough if it's a completely other world. Honduran people are always ready to help you, they're very polite even If your spanish isnt perfect. I really loved the kitchen, the smiles and everything..but I feel very lucky, I had everything. Sometimes, I keep asking myself "why me? How come 32 years ago, a baby like me had the possibilities,many kids didn't had"? I guess, I'll never know, but I'll always be grateful to the woman who left me at the hospital, to give a great chance. Thank you for showing the real Honduras ❤

    This is my grandfather's country. He and his brother came to the United States in the 1940s. Back then it was dangerous (their father was murdered when they were children) but it was mostly just poor, not gang-run. My grandfather and his brother both ended up joining the military, serving in WW2, and sending money home to their mother and siblings. All the younger siblings got to go to school as a result. (My grandfather only was able to attend until 6th grade.) Now the family that still lives there (in Tegucigalpa and San Pedro Sula) lives in a compound behind a wall for obvious reasons. They have money now because of my grandfather and great-uncle sending all their younger siblings through school so many years ago.

      You might want to thank the british outcasts and military for invading America and killing over 40 million Indians and Mexicans in order to make room for the world's immigrants and steal all the precious resources to enrich themselves beyond your wildest imagination. So keep breeding like flies and we will see what group of innocent souls is marked for extermination next, once we become so overcrowded and consume most resources and are force to spread out again. Maybe if they kill another 40 million we can make room for the rest of the world's outcasts and immigrants. Well at least we are the world's number one immigration dumping ground. Now that is great for the massive corporate entities. Because they are always looking for cheap labor. That is if drought, war, famine, plagues or savage storms don't take us out first. You people have no clue what lies ahead. You will learn real quickly that the grass is not always greener on the other side of the border. This country was built on genocide and slavery. Now that is a country to be proud of.

    As a Honduran I am surprised at how well many Hondurans speak English, people that you would never imagine they have the minimum of education. So much potential in such good, hardworking and honest people. Drug trafficking and corruption are a cancer in my poor country. I was born and lived there for 14 years. Then I lived 4 in Guatemala. Now I live in Europe, I miss my home a lot, but I can't imagine coming back to my country. It's really painful not being able to go home.

    I lived in Honduras in the late 80s and it wasn’t violent. It was the safest country in the region.

      No were not the same, you have the super rich ruling class and then you have the upper class, middle class and peasant slave class. There are those in control who live by their own rules and then you have the one's who are rich enough to buy their way out of trouble and freedom. Then you have the one's born into money and then you have the low IQ people, then you have the talented people, the beautiful and the very smart. So we are nowhere near the same. But there are a lot of peasant class working people just trying to survive and meet their living needs. But greed always wins out in this sick world where the rich never have enough money or power to satisfy their addiction. We are divided by class, race, religion, neighborhoods, countries, political affiliations, parties and beliefs, self interests, gender and ethnicity. So keep pretending we are all in the same boat. People are sick, evil, demented. selfish, greedy, warmongers, with large egos and only strive to get what they want and will settle for no less then getting their own way like a bunch of spoiled brats. Money controls all the dumbed down sheeple of the world period. So you might want to open you eyes and take note or continue to believe whatever your wishful mind wants to believe. War is the biggest business this world thrives on in case you haven't noticed. World War III is knocking on the door but the dumb down sheep were none the wiser.

      What does you being a muslim have to do with anything? Christianity came long before Islam, and is the main religion in this region. You make it sound as if because you are muslim you usually would not appreciate someone who is a Christian, but that in this case you are making an exception. And, of course you are muslim. You were born into a muslim family who lived/originated in a country where there were mostly muslims. Had you been born into a Honduran family the likelihood of you being a muslim now would have been close to zero. So, what is your point?

      I just visited Honduras last year after 25 yrs . And the experience was amazing . The first few days I was culture shocked , a lot of people riding motorcycles , walking , or simply just watching the block . People are very generous & humble but you also have to watch out for crime . Rule of thumb is don’t wondered off on your own , nor travel to dangerous places . Overall , there’s so many places to visit and money goes a long way so you will have a blast . I encouraged you to visit one day , you won’t regret it .

    Mr. Lainez! One of my favorite teachers in High school.
    Growing up I lived in both areas of Tegucigalpa and you dont really notice it when you are a kid, but when you get older you start to feel the tension on the streets, murders in every front page of the newspapers, its scary, but somehow you kind of just get used to it but you learn what areas to avoid, and to always be alert. It is hard and the people of this country definitely don't deserve it.

      One time I walked up a mountain alone one time, and later I found out someone was murdered in that way a few days later. The scene with the masonic flag on a hill is by where I was robbed once when I was there for the last time in probably forever. I was alone in a place with bridges, and I saw a guy a stone's throw away just leaning on a barrier. I asked him for directions, but as soon as he saw my pants ,he looked at the bulge. I thought he may have been gay in the non-happy way, but he was just looking for something to steal. I was too careless in part because at the time I was the scariest-looking thing around, having a big black beard of several months where I would be asked by Hondurans where I was from. I told them Honduras, but they said "You look like you're from Iraq." Anyway, the thick man got close to me with a concerned expression, and then just slid his hand down, and I was like, in my mind "Is this sexual harassment? Is this actually happening?" But he took out my cell phone. I reached to get it back but he blocked me while looking at it. I was thinking he probably had a gun or a knife, but I hated the injustice, so I stood there thinking of what to do. I then told him that it was a cheap phone anyway, and he smiled, and I walked away without looking back. Silly me. Later I told my aunt: "Now I'm a real Honduran 'cause I got robbed."

      Don't you think the people need to reclaim thier country? Why is fleeing to the USA the only way? I mean I get it. But at some point the people need to stand up and take control of their government for the good. Here in the US, we are at a point too where we need to get the radicals ruining our country out.

    My girlfriend is from Honduras came to the states in 2016. She said she misses it but she had to leave it was too dangerous and there weren't opportunities for her at the time. She said in the states she makes more money than she ever did back home. Hopefully the situation changes there I want to go with her back to her home country. It's a beautiful land with amazing culture and food. I've been to a few Honduran birthday parties with her, they've always been very welcoming to me as an outsider.

    My dad is Honduran, his mom (my grandma) and her sisters left Tegucigalpa because it was so dangerous. You can’t even really get any tattoos that symbolize Honduras because a lot of them are demonic or gang affiliated. I ended up getting the name Tegucigalpa tattooed on me since it’s the only thing I could tattoo that’s not directly bad. My grandma says it’s really bad out there and they had to flee to have a better life. I have family out there I’ll probably never get to meet.
